How much does the 2022 Toyota GR86 cost?

Prices are up 1.66% year-over-year — a sign of continued demand for this model year.

There are 320 listings available, which gives you a modest amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2022 Toyota GR86 a good car?

Yes — the 2022 Toyota GR86 earns a 4.9/5 from owners and a 7.7/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Performance and Cost effectiveness.

Owners consistently praise the car’s fun-to-drive character, strong performance, good handling, stylish design, and nice interior. The expert review also points to easy-to-use technology and strong value for money.

The trade-offs are clear: the back seat is cramped, and advanced safety features are not standard with the manual transmission. That makes the GR86 best suited to you if you want an affordable enthusiast coupe that prioritizes driving enjoyment over everyday practicality.

With 27.8% of listings marked as good or great deals, there’s still a healthy share of attractive offers in the market.

Is the 2022 Toyota GR86 reliable?

Owners rate it 4.9/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

Owner feedback also points to a car that feels dependable and enjoyable over time, with comments about strong performance, good handling, and a fun driving experience that holds up in daily use. The expert review reinforces that impression by describing the GR86 as a car that delivers on what it was designed to do.

Toyota’s included scheduled maintenance for the first two years or 25,000 miles also helps reduce early ownership costs. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is making sure the car was maintained well and not driven hard without proper care.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Toyota GR86?

At 74.1% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and confirm whether any prior damage was repaired properly. A pre-purchase inspection matters here, especially if you’re considering a manual-transmission car or a higher-mileage example. Focus on overall condition, signs of hard use, and whether the car’s equipment matches the trim you want.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base car gets 17-inch alloy wheels with Michelin Primacy HP tires, while Premium models add 18-inch wheels with grippier Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires, a ducktail rear spoiler, leather upholstery, and aluminum pedals. The Premium trim is the better-equipped choice if you want the more polished cabin and extra visual flair.
• Powertrain: You can choose a six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic with paddle shifters. The 2.4-liter boxer-four makes 228 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque, and the stronger torque delivery helps the car feel quicker and more responsive.
• Safety package: The car uses Subaru’s camera-based EyeSight system. Standard driver aids include automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, pre-collision throttle management, lane-departure warning, sway warning, automatic high beams, and lead-vehicle start alert. Blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive headlights are added on the Premium trim, and the manual transmission does not get the full driver-aid set.
• Infotainment: You get an 8-inch touchscreen, a 7-inch digital instrument cluster, wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto connectivity, Bluetooth, and SiriusXM satellite radio. The digital cluster also adds track-friendly features like a lap timer, data traces, and a digital shift light.
• Fuel efficiency: Toyota estimates 21 mpg combined, 19 mpg city, and 26 mpg highway with the manual transmission, or 24 mpg combined, 20 mpg city, and 30 mpg highway with the automatic.

Which 2022 Toyota GR86 trim should I buy?

The 2022 Toyota GR86 is offered in 2 trim levels: base and Premium.

Here's the short version:

• base: This is the lighter, simpler version, and it still gives you the core GR86 experience: the 2.4-liter engine, the 8-inch touchscreen, the 7-inch digital cluster, and the fun, rear-wheel-drive character that defines the car. If you want the lowest entry price and care most about the driving experience, this is the one to start with.
• Premium: This is the best-value trim if you want the most complete version of the car. It adds the 18-inch wheels with grippier tires, the ducktail rear spoiler, leather upholstery, aluminum pedals, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive headlights.

The Premium trim is the better pick if you want the most equipment, while the base trim makes the strongest case if you’re focused on value and simplicity.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Toyota GR86?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully without expecting every listing to be a bargain.

• Deal availability: 27.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 320 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices are up 1.66% year-over-year.
• Clean inventory: 74.1% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $26,186, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 Toyota GR86's resale value?

The current average of $27,383 sits slightly above last year's $26,935.

That price movement suggests the GR86 has held demand reasonably well, which is a positive sign if you plan to sell later. A modest year-over-year increase also indicates that buyers are still willing to pay for this model’s enthusiast appeal.

Because the car has a strong owner satisfaction score and a clear identity as a fun, affordable sports coupe, it should remain appealing to a focused used-car audience. That kind of demand can help support resale value over time.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.9/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2022 Toyota GR86 safe?

The 2022 Toyota GR86 hasn’t been rated yet by IIHS or NHTSA.

It earns a 7/10 safety score from our experts.

Standard safety equipment includes seven airbags, stability control, and traction control. The car also gets a suite of driver aids, but the full set is only available with the automatic transmission. That means the manual version misses some advanced safety features, and the Premium trim is the one that adds blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive headlights.

Should I buy a 2022 Toyota GR86 or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 27.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 74.1% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices are up 1.66% year-over-year.
• Owners rate it 4.9/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2022 brings a redesigned body, a more powerful engine, and more tech features.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $28,756, the 2023 costs more than the current year's $27,383 average.
• It keeps the same driver-focused formula while leaning even more into enthusiast appeal.

The bottom line: If you want the better value and a strong mix of performance and equipment, the 2022 is the smart starting point. If you’re willing to pay more for a newer model year, the 2023 is the better path for buyers who want the latest version of the same formula. For price-sensitive shoppers, the 2022 remains the more compelling buy.
